“In Heaven we'll understand why we've suffered on Earth. The Apostle Paul explained, For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then, face to face.

“When the Son on the Cross promises paradise in his company to the good thief, when he promises the future feast in Heaven to the Apostles, when he speaks of the kingdom of the Father, he is always pointing toward eternity. However brief and close to the earth his words sound, they echo throughout infinite eternity and permeate the faith of his followers with their eternal content. He knows what he speaks of, what he brings with him and what he promises; and he can convey it to those who know it not. The very words he uses are designed to awaken in them a new sense: the sense of the eternal.” KnowsUseEarthFatherSpeakHeavenSoundCompanySonPromiseEternalCrossesEternityInfiniteKingdomsParadiseFollowersThievesEchoesPointingApostles Author:Adrienne von Speyr

“Christianity as a specific doctrine was slain with Jesus, suddenly and utterly. He was hardly cold in his grave, or high in his heaven (as you please), before the apostles dragged the tradition of him down to the level of the thing it has remained ever since.” JesusHeavenLevelsChristianityColdPleaseTraditionGravesDoctrineApostles Book:The Complete Prefaces: 1914-1929 Source: The Complete Prefaces: 1914-1929
